I myself see a big pullback coming in the next six months but I don’t know that I have ever been correct over 45 years. I will put a lot of money in if a 10% pullback comes. I expect you r being prudent depending on how old you are. The thing is, if you’re young, you might as well stick it out and not try to time. He said.
@BenWP,
Yeah, they yank you off fentanyl as soon as they can, alas, as it was bliss --- completely cloaking the system and thwarting/relaxing the shakes and chills and rotating pain from the big cortisol and adrenaline dump of getting hit and frac…

@Observant1,
I'm still waiting for you to prove my hindsight; after all, it's not the first time you claimed it.
I never claimed to be the smartest in the room or that I made the most.
BTW, I also don't attack posters personally; I just use analysis…
Both the NYTimes and WaPo today have leadoff articles about how well the US stock market is going to do in '25.
Unbelievable content. Who knows if it will prove contrarian?
Wow, ur so damn dumb & oblivious to your own racist fascist comments...you truly r an inbred, buck tooth cracker...typical of the unhinged morons of the left, you spew racist hateful comments & then accuse others of doing exactly what you ar…
This is great!
About time we had a hatemonger (and Examiner reader) here:

Well whatever the cost, it's surely WELL WORTH IT!! You all seem to only be considering the $9 billion in lost revenue & that impact...well try dealing with the $182 billion spent in 2023 alone on illegal immigration...so yeah, get these crimina…
the local public LENDING library RENTS DVDs for a $2.00 fee. I won't pay it on principle.

Sorry, David. I wasn't listening. Did you mean something like this?

I accidentally snorted out whisky at reading half of these ... I was only trying to find the quote that no one has yet devised, concocted, imagined, or plausibly advocated a use case

@YBB, tyvm for that info --- not surprising, don't know why I didn't think of it or investigate. One of my kids works in that space.

There was no time to get any bids, really, as a legacy flange pipe from an old toilet tying to the main output pipe was sprewing whiffy 70yo 'loam' onto the basement floor. Backed up and blocked all of a sudden, actually aerosoling into the basement…
Maybe all good card companies are like this, but I just had a huge plumbing emergency (over $35k of work, gah) and the company doing it takes cred cards ...
so while they were jackhammering in the basement and replacing legacy cast iron drainpipin…
Not to mention that prices rose everywhere in the world, not just in the USA. A small detail, but it didn't seem like anybody mentioned it during the election campaign.

BoA / ML, by no means alone, has gotten very strict about the 'know your customer' thing, corporatewide mandate, due to insane global scamming and fraud.
Rightly or wrongly.
(This from a BoA IT SVP.)
Sold all of my jqua, tcaf, qlty for a good gain, large total for me, and will close out large fmsdx position presently.
Then I will sit and stare at this really unusual amount of cash awaiting significant dip, to repurchase the etfs at least.
